Asics Love?!? Where is it?

Am I the only one that the Alvin Purples looks no better than some Gr's that are sitting? Meaning they look good but it doesn't seem to be any uptick in quality or styling. I just get a meh feel from them. Good luck to all that want to cop. Still a good colorway and shoe.

Damn all these big-time resellers in NYC are eating up FSR's of these Alvins...see around 4-5 resellers with FSR's.  
  
Could see these shoes going for $400 in the future, but you can grab a pair definitely right now for $300 shipped on the bay.

there are pairs less than that already

and its about to drop even more in the next hour

buy a pair from ebay for $280 before the release.  if you strike out on Packers, then you still have your pair for under the supposed expected resell price of $400-500

lol the resell is going to plummet to around 220-240 upon people getting orders in online and scoring in store

there are like 50 pairs up now lowest i seen is 270

the undercuts are on deck lol
 
I never understood how some of these people get a FSR of shoes, did they rob the delivery truck? Figure it would be easier with a wider release, like jordans, but how's it work when they're exclusive to one store in NJ. Not hatin, quite impressed actually 
 
quaility was trash for first release.  i dunno. i like em.  i like the how charcoal gray turns white and black when you touch it.  it's a unique shoe.  it'll be interesting to see.  my buddy is txting all this dev language about buy limits and all.  so, hopefully bots will be crippled.

i'll post a vid later with the OG and re-release comparison.

i think it's all a scam.  they're just collecting funds and when they strike out they'll be refunding.  looks like packer isn't getting bot-raped today.  so i hear.
 
well people lined up will def get their pairs and im sure majority of them are the ones that have ebay listings up lol

im sure at least 50 heads are lined up being someone said 300 earlier

a few of these sellers look to have very good feedback (700+ @ 99% positive).  not sure why they'd want to risk that.  
 
it might even reach Ronnie fieg statues, resell game  is gonna be crazy, only 1 store selling it and super limited!

might reach to $600+, the resellers are gonna be so happy!

people forget how plentiful packer only stock is

they are known to have the highest amount of pairs always for their collabo/drops
 
they don't look particularly good in that last pic though.. still, good luck to those that really want em!
 
So should I halve sz up on these? I usually do for GL 3 and 5 but some said the kfe GL3 should've stayed tts or even down but that was because of the leather lining. Anyone that has a pair care to comment?

J/p, alp how you liking them? Do they come with any extras? stickers, etc. I would hope they would include something for such a nostalgic release

They are nice. They come with extra laces, that's about it. Like any regular pair of gl3s. Nothing different I see about them
